Gallery20 Slides

Tonight's Golden Globes red carpet is more than a venue for stars to show off designer duds. Scores of celebrities are wearing black to the event to make a statement against sexual harassment and assault, in Hollywood and beyond. They're specifically showing their support for Time's Up, a recently formed coalition of over 300 women in the entertainment industry who are fighting for gender parity in their industry and others. Actresses including Emma Watson, Meryl Streep, and Michelle Williams also announced that they would be bringing activists for a variety of causes as their guests to the Golden Globes. Read on to scope their looks and read their words.

Debra Messing

"I am wearing black to thank and honor all of the brave whistleblowers who came forward and shared their stories of harassment and assault and discrimination," Messing said on the red carpet. "I'm wearing black to stand in solidarity with my sisters all over the globe... We want diversity, we want intersectional gender parity, we want equal pay."

The Stranger Things kids

Gaten Matarazzo, Caleb McLaughlin, Finn Wolfhard, Sadie Sink, and Noah Schnapp all sported black (or near-black, in Matazzaro's case) to the event. The boys also sported "Time's Up" pins. "I’m interested to see everyone in black and their different take on it, I think it’s great," Sink said.

Meryl Streep and Ai-jen Poo

Streep invited Ai-jen Poo, the director of the National Domestic Workers Alliance, to join her at the ceremony. “I think that people are aware now of a power imbalance. And it’s something that leads to abuse," Streep said on the red carpet. "It’s led to abuse in our own industry, and it’s led to abuse across the domestic workers’ field of work. It’s in the military. It’s in Congress. It’s everywhere. And we want to fix that.”

“This is a movement where this is space for everyone and there’s a role for everyone,” Poo added.

Michelle Williams and Tarana Burke

Williams attended with Burke, the founder of #MeToo and senior director of the nonprofit Girls for Gender Equity. "I am moved beyond measure to be standing next to this woman," Williams said, expertly pivoting the red carpet conversation back to gender equity when asked about her nomination for Best Actress in a Drama. "#MeToo is really about everybody," Burke said. "We want ultimately for women to know that we support them wherever they are, so I’m here to represent survivors around the world."

Emma Watson and Marai Larasi

Watson's guest, Larasi, is executive director of Imkaan, a U.K.-based organization that fights violence against black and minority women. “Every time somebody speaks out, it just creates a bit of a crack in that wall... [W]omen in Hollywood have an opportunity to amplify the issues," Larasi said.
